Now that I am down to one job instead of four, I really need to kick all excuses to the curb for why I haven't been putting more time and effort into food preparation and attention to its content, and trying to eat more raw.
I have: Veganomicon; some raw books thanks to a very lovely and knowledgeable Ukulele playing friend (including Juliano's RAW! where I found that amazing Pomegranate Guacamole idea) ; and The Post Punk Kitchen online; among others. I am surrounded by farmer's markets. Aside from salary woes and lethargy, no excuses.
This is a recent post in a Raw Veganism community that I follow on LiveJournal.
Don't be afraid to click. It's food porn silly, not the other kind, of course it's safe for work. But I assure you it is orgasmic nonetheless.
These pictures are amazing. I do not have such a high quality camera. Mine is a really old digital Canon I got off CraigsList some years ago, and had to ride the commuter rail to a mill town to obtain. The train ticket cost more than the thing itself. It functions of its own accord and mood. Any stunning photos taken with it have been accidental and subject to lots of my amateur editing.
My signatures include various versions of vegan chocolate cake and vegan cheesecake, Veganomicon's Chickpea Quinoa Pilaf, Vegan Latkes; and yes, I have made these amazing Potato Kale Enchiladas once from the glorious PPK! (I substituted all the hot peppers with poblanos though).
So if anyone with jaw dropping photography equipment and talents, such as in the above, wishes to team up with me to take pictures of my culinary adventures when they finally take flight again, do tell.
Especially when I hunt down that Cafe Gratitude raw vegan Tiramisu recipe I have been lusting after and finally manifest that amazing creation myself. At which point we will have to have a Prince/ss Tea Party as well.
Oh wow, I want that tiramisu! In fact, I want pretty much everything from that post.
ReplyDeleteI'm making the PPK pumpkin French toast tonight! :D I've been waiting for my bread to get a little stale. But last night I made bagel pizzas, involving making my very own creamy soy cheese sauce, which was my first time making a cheese and my first time using nutritional yeast. I am a convert! At first the taste seemed weird, but once I was expecting the flavor, it was AWESOME.
I really need to be better about eating more veggies (such a silly thing to say, right?) but it's so expensive to get fresh, quality veg around here. :(
